I saw a meme on Facebook the other day. It said:
“While you wait, stay in faith. Your change will come right on time.”
(Author Unknown, If anyone has a proprietary interest in this story please authenticate and I will be happy to credit, or remove, as the circumstances dictate. Thanks to Facebook)
According to Oxford Languages, faith is, “a complete trust or confidence in someone or something.”
Do you have faith that God is taking care of you? That He is working out everything that concerns you? When push comes to shove, sometimes faith is all you have. At least that is what I have found in my life. God wants us to have faith in Him, that He will take care of us. But what about if you have a bill due and no way to pay it? Do you totally trust that God will provide or do you fret and worry about it until you try to fix it yourself?
I’ll admit it. I have done exactly that. Many times until I finally got it through my head that God has it under control and to keep my fingers out of it. Is it easy? Of course not. I want it fixed now. I get impatient and want it fixed immediately. But that’s not how God is. Everything is in His timing, not ours. His timing is perfect. So the next time you think you can handle it better than God can, think again. And relax and let Him work it out.
Have a blessed day, everyone.
